Recipe Steps

20 min

  • Step 1

    Slice the romaine lettuce into very thin strips. Rinse the lettuce well, then spin the lettuce in a salad spinner to remove as much water as possible. Place the lettuce into a large mixing bowl. Wash the outside of the purple cabbage. Slice the cabbage in half and then into quarters. Remove the core from one of the quarters. Slice the quarter into very thin slices, enough for 4 oz worth. Place this in the bowl with the sliced romaine lettuce.

  • Step 2
